Supported microchips

Proton Development Suite supports all of the most popular Microchip Devices. With new - and ever more complex - devices, becoming available each month, we try to keep up! Inevitably support for some very new devices will be delayed as we await samples and errata free data sheets.

Our policy for adding devices is generally managed within the following hierarchy:

add support if a new device is a variation of an existing supported device

add support of a new device based upon popular demand, as requested by forum users.

Subject to the device being available for general purchase

the data sheet being available to us

there being no major errata notes related to the device

the device being a standard 12, 14 or 16 bit core device

The compilers support popular devices that are absolutely free! to use and have no limitations, as well as 99% of all PIC, PIC24, and dsPIC microcontrollers for a small fee to help its support and improvements. Also, remember, Proton24 is free with Proton, so it's a single installation for a huge catalogue of devices.
